Poznan, Poland based blackened post-hardcore/post-metal band Asteriæ premiere new single and music video »1 – 4 – 8«, released on August 21st, 2025. »1 – 4 – 8« is the first single from their upcoming album.

Says the band: “Single »1 – 4 – 8« is now available on all streaming platforms. Check out the first act of the upcoming album and let us know where it took you. Music video was made in cooperation with Chodzicki Media. You’ll find it on 666MrDoom YouTube channel.”

Asteriæ is a five-piece band from Poznan that blends elements of post-metal and hardcore. Their music combines furious blast beats with spacious guitar motifs, all immersed in heavily distorted bass and complemented by aggressive, screaming vocals.

The band was founded in 2019 by Michał and Marcel. In February 2023, they released their debut album, “Gasnąc”, which was created entirely in accordance with the DIY ethos. The material was very well received by both listeners and the music community, leading to numerous concerts across the country, including performances at Summer Dying Loud, Post Mortem, and Skowyt.

Exactly one year after their debut, Asteriæ decided to capture their live energy in a unique project – Black Vine Session #2, a live video album recorded at the Museum of Musical Instruments in Szyba. The recording presents the band in their natural environment – full of expression, emotion, and intense atmosphere.

The lyrics of Asteriæ explore emotions and the internal struggle of man against himself.
